Filofax: My First Few Weeks

Hello Everyone :) I hope you had a wonderful weekend! Today I'm excited to finally introduce you to the fabulous new addition to my life... my [personal] pink Domino by Filofax. I adore her... and she loves to help me stay organized! I'll be sharing more of her this coming week here on my blog, so I won't go into too much detail...

I've had her for about three weeks now, so today I wanted to show you the layouts from my recently completed pages. You'll notice that I use a color-coded system. For the decade I've been using personal paper planners, I saw that this type of system is what I gravitated towards over the years... because it works for me. So it only made sense to apply it in my Filofax.

Filofax Love: Week 29

I spent the first few weeks customizing my Filofax to fit my style and to make it more "me." [You will see more about that in a future post.] Week 29 was my very first week in my new planner. I had lots of fun decorating the pages with new washi tape, cute stickers, and journaling using pens that correspond with my color codes.

Filofax Love: Week 30

I was already starting to develop a preference for the way my notes were laid out on the pages in each of the "daily" sections. I do a lot of journaling and jotting of details, so I don't embellish the pages too much beforehand [just washi at the top and bottom of each page]. I want to be sure that I have enough room for the specifics of each day. The end of the week is when I go ahead and add my stickers and/or doodles, filling in some of the blank areas.

Filofax Love: Week 31

Week 31 is my most recent completed week. I started out with some fun, kawaii washi tape on the top and bottom of my "Week on Two Pages" inserts. [I'll be sharing where I found these later this week.] I had a pretty busy week, so I stuck with my color coding to keep me on track. I added some doodles, stickers, and sticky tabs and flags.

Planning For A New Week in My Filofax

Here you can see what is going on in my Filofax right now as I plan for the upcoming week. I use all kinds of fun stuff in addition to my Filofax to help me stay organized. I can't wait to show you how I've customized and personalized this little baby!

Filofax Love: A Peek into My Color-Coded Life

Well that's all I have for you today. Be sure to stay tuned because I'll be sharing the inside of my personal pink Domino with you here later this week. You'll see my personalized inserts, dividers, the supplies I use, my "sections" showing how I use my Filofax to stay organized, recent hauls from my favorite stores to buy Filo supplies... lots of good stuff!

To stay updated on my recent posts, projects, and photos, you can follow me on instagram, or "like" my new fan page on Facebook. I also made a new pinboard on Pinterest called "Filofax Addict," where I add inspiration, printables, DIY's, tips, or supplies I discover during my new adventure.
